Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen vs Highrisers
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen casts you into the role of an adventurer leading a band of three AI companions (a.k.a. Pawns) as you set off into a huge and gorgeous open world in search of fame, glory and treasures. One of the main selling points in this game is the incredibly well-designed combat system where you'll actually need to approach your battles and your opponents strategically rather than simply rush head-on. Find out the weaknesses of your enemies and attack them at their achilles' heel.The game also has some of the most amazing AI learning systems in place where the combat style of each Pawn will change depending on the traits learned from the player. In other words, you can literally train your Pawns to fill in the roles you need them to be. Whether you'll train them as a versatile fighter or to play a very specific role in your group... well, that's entirely up to you. Players will even have a ton of options to choose from when it comes to customizing their characters.
Despite the slightly weaker storyline, Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is one of the best monster-hunting and slaying RPGs out there where the action-based gameplay feels smooth and realistic enough to immerse you completely during intense battles with monstrous creatures. If this sounds just like a game you'd like to play, be sure to give the game a try!
Highrisers
Highrisers is an “escape from the tower”-style survival-slash-resource management game that’s fairly similar to the first Skyhill game, except that instead of traveling to the lobby, your end goal here is to scavenge the resources you need from the lower floors to fix the helicopter on the rooftop so your team of 4 survivors (if none of them died, that is) can escape the tower. It’s basically a quarter of the plot of Zack Synder’s most recent and relatively controversial zombie flick, Army of the Dead, really… and like the film, the game is fun but it has its own caveats.And of course, there are the zombies… ahem… I mean, mutants that will attack your team and any fortifications you’ve put up if they spot you… so there’s that.
For what it’s worth, I really liked resource management-based survival games like Highrisers and I have had a pretty good experience with the game myself, minus all the issues I’ve pointed out. The game definitely has some good stuff going for it, but the dev team really needs to work on the game more to revamp some of the gameplay designs and also to fix the game-breaking bugs reported by their players. Only then I would be comfortable recommending the game. For now though, it’s probably wise to keep it in your wishlist.
